Mrs. CUNNINGHAM, who. was tried
for the. murder of pr. Burdellf in New
York, thirty years ago, and whosetria
was the greatest sensation of that day,
died in that city recently. She was
4seventy-oight years of age and was the
wife of William Williams, of California,
who seems to have robbed her of all
her money and then deserted her.
She maintained to the last her inno-
cence of the murder, and the living
relatives of the latter seem to have
been convinced that she was not guilty
of the crime for which she suffered so
many years.

minutes "a seconds.
After the race Mr.. James Bel, the prin-
cipal owner of the Thistle, said he was not
at all satisfied with the result The Thistle,
he declared, had never moved so slowly
through the water. He was of the
opinion that there was something
wrong with the cutters bottom" and she
would be hauled out of the water to-day
with view toward finding out what it was.
Captain Barr, of the Thistle, held the same
views. He said that some of the crew had
been notified anonymously that the cutters
bottom had been "doctored," and the truth
would be ascertained before Thursday, the
day of the next race Captain Barr said he
had sailed the Thistl9 every time she had
been out, and he never knew her to move
so badly on the wind.

the present time the Philadelphia, mint has
10000 worth of orders ahead and can not catch

that they are used to an extent never known be-

ORGANIZATION OF THE G. A. R.
To Illinois belongs the honor of organic
ing the first Grand Army Post Wisconsin
has recently put in claim of priority, but
Precedent and evidence are against her. The
creator OF the grand organization that now
embraces 2OO, 900 men was Dr.. B. F. Ste
phenson, of Decatur, Ill, who served as q
surgeon in the Fourteenth Illinois Infantry.
He suggested the idea to bis comrades in
February, 1866, and it was so well
thought of that April 6, 1866 Post
No L was organized at Decatur
and had forty-three charter members
among them Messrs. Coltrin and Pryor, pro-
prietors of the Decatur Tribune and their
compositors, and was founded on a consti-
tuition written by Dr.. Stephenson. Soon
after Post No. 2 was organized at
Springfield, ILL.,, and others were quick
ly instituted throughout the West The
first National encampment was held at In
dianapolis November 20, 1866, and ten
States were represented The plan of or
ganization was then enlarged and some i'm
